Resurrection of Christ (1966) in the painting of Quirino De Ieso [tempera, cm.50X35)
Jesus tells us: "Do not marvel at this,because the hour is coming when all who are in the graves shall hear his voice and come forth: those who have done good to the resurrection of life and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation " [cf. GV 5, 28-29]. And yet Jesus said in a previous track: "The dead will hear the voice of the Son of God and those who have listened live» [cf. GV 5, 25]. To follow with the Apocalypse in which it is written: "Those who" heed ", or obey, the instructions they receive after they are resurrected will have their names written in “scroll of life”» [AP 20, 12-13].

The sleep of death It makes a man impotent entity, silent before the inexorable occurrence scientific and rationalistic, but fortunately comforting to human memory and expanded into both poems, the epigraph, is the artistic representation rescues the perpetuation of individual identity of each of us. As well as the Evangelist John tells us, with the words of Christ, the deceased, It must be recognized as such, with their culture, their experience, with a mission, by "the funeral celebration or in memory" or the memory ensured epitaph; to then be finally, the death, defeated by the Risen Christ through the recognition of eternal life, through the resurrection of the body that makes us share in the resurrection of Christ.

Sergio Alessandro Ughi, 1981: Chess game with Death [Collection of Ferrara Savings Bank]
The Evangelist John's warning is clear:the experience of man can not be forgotten for the multitude of writings, artifacts, works more vast and various intellectual and craft that we are accustomed to appreciate or not through books, newspapers, real cities and their, reveal that in addition to the mind, the presence of a soul and now the same media, inventions and technological equipment will make it almost perfect the same earthly existence. But we're so overly focused on living this life that we sometimes forget even be fatal. So one wonders how much more is the attention, the interest, care to their deceased are recognized as men of extraordinary ability or not, inclination, even after having lived this mortal life.
.
Yet a distant time the man took care to confer "proper burial" to the dead, especially in Greek society witnessed by the Homeric poems in which the agonizing tension of a failure burial vitiated the soul's fate, he could reach his final home in the afterlife only when the body had received the honors and the rites of burial. Therefore their care for the custody of the corpse were equal to those of the soul and functional well-being of the latter to ensure the memory even through the centuries.

Since the origins of man's appearance on earth, styles and burial arrangements have contributed to the continuity of the "memory" funeral crossing the boundaries of time, and the cemetery (from greek κοιμητήριον resting place) as a place of eternal rest, involved and interested in different aspects of human life, from anthropology, the history of art to politics, to society, fashionable even, to find comfort and motivation to this eschatological sense in all of us. the burial, indeed, since ancient times has been expressed in many different ways through various forms and ways: from cremation to burial, taking shape structurally by sarcophagi, artificial cave tombs, tumulus, a cyst, ad enchytrismos, symbolically linked to the various pagan religious beliefs and reaching in the Christian era by interment sprinkling of oils on the body that was covered by the shroud (linen sheet).

The only watershed that has always distinguishedthe modus sepolturae even among Christians concerns the construction of tombs, which have been more or less decorated depending on the economic possibilities of the families, or rather sometimes stained the glorious events or distinctive in life characterized the deceased, within the framework of different historical periods. It is not yet negligible, mention the Byzantine period between the fourth and sixth centuries, when he proceeded to bury prominent figures, high prelates, or lords of the city within the churches, asking the intercession of the martyrs buried there, through so-called burials the saints, such a distinctive feature of the society of which even became a fad. Only during the Napoleonic era, with the famous Edict of Saint Cloud 1804, then also extended to Italy, They forbade buildings cemetery inside the town, imposing their placement Extra moenia with tombstones all equal placed along the same wall.

Veritable necropolis, cast of the living city will extend outside the towns, characterized by gardens, almost immense lush greenery of parks and tombstones planted therein by way of "stems" are, but not floral, but funeral. The cemetery is considered as an open air museum, witness to history, of a people, symbol of religious and social representation. Legacy of the latter is the contemporary cemetery no longer understood as a time, simply resting place but now more than ever the grave fulfills the functionality of a home for the deceased, abbellendone death, and proceeding to a schedule of necrophiliac landscape of family chapels that take the form of real houses, where not only there is space dedicatory to the memory of the late, but there shall be a celebration emphasized the economic and social role of the man who has disappeared.

"In the shadow of 'cypress e inside the urns comforted crying is perhaps the sleep of death less hard?», Ugo Foscolo poem recited in the "Tomb", and still Kafka, in his Diary, complained: death is considered "cruel side of evil is an apparent end that produces a real pain». But today, what remains of these two precious "movements of the soul"? If it has even come to freeze the mortal remains through a complex process of cryo-melting to give life through the generative cycle mechanism to a vegetable, or even an unusual funeral home is able to produce "Memory diamonds" [CF.WHO] where human ashes are transformed into precious stones, to set and carry around for the human ambitions.

Here art there is very little, but still less than the spirit,because it is no longer contact the artist who realizes the marble or wooden tomb concentrating all his energies in the ornate design of punching or low reliefs from the deep meaning iconological, symbolic and spiritual, then store it in the mausoleum or the most elegant funerary chapel of the necropolis. Death is certainly always the same, but the man tries to exorcise it in a very different way, not giving it more the meaning of the memory of the man who was, as well as for centuries it has been used to remember, but his who will, ie a piece of mineral or a vegetable, depriving now even the next of the eschatological meaning of death itself, linked to a hope that is a certainty of faith: "I believe in the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come", as we say in our Profession of Faith.

THE EARTHQUAKE IN NORCIA CAN NOT DESTROY WHAT YOU HAVE ALREADY DESTROYED The BENEDETTINI BETWEEN MONEY, SEX, DRUGS AND EVEN THE ROCK AND ROLL THEIR ABBOT PRIMATE
.
On the figures and personalities "prominent" the Benedictine world in recent decades could write pages of rivers, all tested and documented, as regards sex, money and even use drugs, such as the Arch-Abbot of Monte Cassino, cocaine last stage. the triad: money, sex and drugs, only lacked the Rock and Roll, thing that he thought the Abbot Primate Wolf Nokter, so as not to miss anything.
Then he said to them,: «People will rise up against people and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be earthquakes from place to place, famines and pestilences; There will be terrors and great signs from heaven ".

the ruins of the Basilica of St. Benedict of Nursia in the town of Norcia
the journal The New Compass Daily published an article signed by the Prior of the Benedictine Monastery of San Benedetto in Norcia [see WHO], finished razed for earthquakes. Since we live in a society that thought is now passed from the liquid to the vaporous and that's why live each event with irrational emotionalism, no historical memory and reading skills, I believe deserves mentioning that "God punish and mercy", to paraphrase an article by John Cavalcoli ON [seeWHO].
.
The fall of the Benedictine basilica, in Hometown of Blessed Benedict of Nursia, founder of Western monasticism, It is only the visible fall of an old order which for several decades was destroyed by members of the various Benedictine families.
.
In today's Church there are two historical Orders that they are paradigm of our irreversible decline: the Jesuits and the Benedictines. Not that the other Orders and Congregations are better placed, because the decadence of the religious life in general, It is now in a state in which long has exceeded the threshold of non-return.
.

The Jesuits are the paradigm of the worst theological drift. In fact, if we analyze with clarity the history of the last fifty years of their lives, we find that the spread of the worst theologians e sociologisms heterodox have all their work, although vacated, under Pope St. John Paul II, then under that of Benedict XVI, to spread the worst mistakes of doctrine in Latin America and the Eastern countries.
.
The nickname coined by me: Company of the Indies, It aims to indicate in a tragicomic the progressive transformation of the old, glorious and praiseworthy Society of Jesus was founded by Blessed Father Ignatius of Loyola. This Order, for decades in free fall - also in number, if we consider that in just one year of the millennium were recorded about 500 deaths and 20 new priestly ordinations in the world -, It has its own current tank vocations in India and Africa, with a slight consequently not: many new fathers are clearly animists and syncretistic, with all due respect to what was once the long and strict Catholic education to which the Jesuits were subjected in the past. Obvious consequences: If we analyze in depth the issue we discover that behind the worst aberrations born from liberation theology, the Theology of the People, by Indigenous Theology, the Theology syncretistic, until the Theology of the death of God, to follow with the infiltration of the worst theologians Protestants and Biblical Judaism within the Catholic Church, always and invariably discover that behind all of you are like capocomici Theologian and gods sociologists Jesuits.
.
When before the evidence of facts not known how to respond,but above all to deny the obvious and horrible truth, at that point usually comes the admonition: "Your pessimistic spirit and absolutist borders on lack of light and of Christian charity. In short, can that everything is rotten? There will also be good Jesuits!». Or good, we will the good Jesuits, I can witness it even better than others, It is having been the first result in the vocational path, afterward format for the ministerial priesthood also from two Jesuits belonging to the old Society of Jesus, certainly not to the modernistic and syncretistic Company of the Indies. But we are in fact talking with men of an entirely different generation, as evidence the age of one of the two still living, which it has long exceeded ninety years of age. Men trained in the most rigid orthodoxy, with a setting of military company, with an encyclopedic knowledge acquired in the course of their lives. In short: the Society of Jesus who was and who unfortunately is no longer. That glorious company that I, through some reduced elders today to four cats on their way to the tomb, I had the honor and privilege to know and to attend.

The wishful thinking- It is because of illusion -, about the fact that "... there will be some good Jesuits!», does not detract from an objective: if in a vineyard vines are attacked grapevine downy mildew, better known as late blight[1], it is useless to console themselves by saying that scattered across the rows there are - however few - even some of the healthy grapes, because regardless they, the vineyard is sick, diffusely and unfortunately irreversible.
.
Expenses, He has never seen plants or trees completely rotted,but they had one or two still green and healthy leaves? but yet, before the plants affected by communicable diseases to the other crops, I am not aware that any agronomist ever said that since the plant running and infects survived one or two healthy leaves, It could not be cut, or better left in place so that it could also infect other plants. This thing of which - speaking of the Society of Jesus -, remain responsible for the Blessed Paul VI and John Paul II to follow St., that, despite having thought of dissolving, It seems to have been persuaded not to do so, or perhaps he himself was convinced not to do so, as he explains Giovanni Cavalcoli in an article dedicated long ago the Society of Jesus [seeWHO].
.
If the Jesuits are the paradigm of doctrinal decay,The Benedictines are the worst moral decadence, always according to the principle of plants and completely rotted trees, where they survive one or two still green and healthy leaves. Suffice it to say in this regard that thethe case of Montecassino, Abbey West's Mother, It is by no means an isolated case, but only the tip of the 'iceberg. In the past I wrote about the events and lived Luciferian abbot of this abbey, adhering strictly to the facts and legal documents, in which materials are contained before which would take the distances even the inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah. A Head of the West's historic abbey, was in fact over a gaiaPrincess capricious who squandered money in luxury living, partying homosexuals and drugs [see the second part of my previous articleWHO].

Alla Badia di Sant'Anselmo Primaziale in Urbe, seat of the Abbot Primate of the Benedictine Confederation, home of the St. Anselm Pontifical Athenaeum, headquarters annex international college for theology students, The Congregation for Catholic Education, between 2007 and the 2008, after several previous calls, finally imposed to higher Benedictine Superiors to clean up the "sacred" horde walls of homosexuals within them had created a real brothel, with lots of couples living together more or less official or unofficial. Anyone who wishes can always ask for confirmation to the still healthy and well, Cardinal Zenon Grocholewski, at the time Prefect of this Congregation, that the seriousness of the case treated personally and made it finally dictate the ultimatum: "Or cleaned your College, or I'll do close ».
.
Lately, the Abbey of Grottaferrata, prelature immediately subject to the Holy See, It lost this ancient status. After the appointment of the new higher, the Belgian Benedictine Dom Michel Van Parys, the Holy See has taken the diocesan jurisdiction entrusted to the Abbot of the Abbey near Bishop of Albano Laziale. Exactly as it happened a little over a year ago for the Abbey of Montecassino, deprived of the diocesan jurisdiction exercised for centuries by Abati cassinesi and passed to the neighboring Diocese of Sora, whose Diocesan Ordinary has assumed the title of Bishop of Sora-Aquino-Pontecorvo-Montecassino.
.
What happened in the Abbey of Grottaferrata? Solita organize, even worse, the usual and by now crystallized frocismi monks, which gives us news so pompous French Catholic newspaper The cross, imputing the serious decision of the Holy See to the "frequent nocturnal comings and goings in the abbey". And this nocturnal comings and goings, strictly based on youngsters, It resulted in this serious point that the Holy See has subsequently declared invalid the ordination of some monks, as suffering from blatant and serious factory defect. Writes the French Catholic daily:
.
the Holy See would have indeed asked the Abbot of Grottaferrata to resign after complaints of residents' repeated nocturnal activities "and" back and forth frequent ". Rome had also requested the nullity pronounced several ordinations of monks of the abbey[2].

i Feedback, German group that counts among its members Dom Notker Wolf, Abbot Primate of the Benedictine Confederation [seeWHO]
I always remember with horror stories I made to me in Rome as an ambassador, devout Catholic, also always healthy and well beyond that with extraordinary memory, when he told me that on his return from his mission in a war zone at the beginning of 2000, He decided to retire for a few days in the Abbey of Praglia for the Easter Triduum. I told the diplomat desolate in front of my co-worker: "In the guesthouse of the Abbey two young French we were hosted, those in Roman jargon are commonly referred to as marchettari, one of whom slept in a room adjoining my. And all night I had to hear the comings and goings of the monks'. He ended with the diplomat bitterness: "That was my Easter Triduum in the Abbey of Praglia after my long diplomatic mission in a war zone, in which I had lived for a couple of years fully armored inside the embassy '.
.
Abbey of Monte Oliveto Moste and its current Abate, known by senior monks ever since he was a young cleric - and of which the writer has had to direct its time and personal knowledge - spread a veil, sure no one will have the imprudence to lift issues vilified monastic honor, given that within the "sacred" walls happened just about everything, how can testify many former monks, several of which emerged from that abbey to go to the secular clergy, ready to report to any ecclesiastical authority that repeatedly witnessed to me: "Within those walls I saw before the moral corruption, hereinafter hell '. Perhaps the same hell that he sees the postulant 38 years in that 2007 He killed himself by jumping from a window. Obviously, the face of such tragedy, the justification was good and ready: "The poor fellow was suffering from mental disorders". A justification before which, however, is a question as pertinent as logical: of when, They are allowed in the oldest and noblest Benedictine abbeys of poor people suffering from mental disorders? Or we are we to infer that an old abbey performs volunteer service as a mental health center? In short: the real disturbed, It is the one who killed himself in despair, or those who have remained inside, starting by the then Abbot Dom Michelangelo Maria Tiribilli, at least devoid of introspective ability and spirit of the Christian vocation discernment, after following in his time for many years the formation of candidates to sacred orders clerics, many of which have become the gay monks flickering, among which then, near, They were chosen and elected abbots bearing altrettanza and graceful gaiety?

More than a few personalities of the Benedictine world involved in scandals in recent decades often unspeakable, all linked to the penalty from which moral problems are always born of ordinary homosexuality stories, sometimes even of pedophilia, such as Metropolitan Archbishop of Vienna, the Benedictine Hans Wilhelm Groër, forced to leave the Archdiocese in 2005. His successor, Christopher von Schoenborn, Order of Preachers, In the 2008 publicly asked forgiveness from Austrian Catholics for acts committed by his predecessor, admitting to that effect all the facts to him charged [cf. WHO].
.
Just as fate indignitosa touched former Abbot Primate of the Benedictine Confederation, Dom Rembert G. Weakland, spearhead of the ultra liberalism, that at the end of his term he was elected Bishop of Milwaukee in the United States of America, where he was accused of sexual harassment by a former student of theology, from which he tried to buy the silence with large sums of money stolen to the coffers of the diocese[3].
.
Dom Nokter Wolf, Bavarian abbot of the Abbey of Sankt Ottilien,lampante catholic-protestant setting and exponent of the crudest modernist progressivism - given that there are fine modernist with deep and unique culture -, It was the most worthy successor of Dom Rembert G. Weakland in the office of abbot primate of the Benedictine Confederation. Skilful exploiter of its position, Dom Nokter Wolf has devoted mostly to personal entrepreneurship, giving to the press one after the other books made ridiculous by the lack of elementary theological dignity, well as being without logical sense. A Bavarian small in stature and always smiling, good Dom Nokter Wolf, more like the stereotype of speck Neapolitan instead the Nordic Teutonic blond washed eyes of ice and high physical stature. Remembered as such - that is, as a speck - from dozens and dozens of former students of St. Anselm, especially when the morning, comes in the monastic choir, He showed visible signs revealing than perhaps he had not yet disposed of the alcoholic spirit of the previous evening.

On the figures and personalities "prominent" the Benedictine world of recent decades could write pages of rivers, all tested and documented as regards sex, money and even drugs, as in the case of the Abbot of Monte Cassino, cocaine last stage. the triad: money, sex and drugs, But lacked the Rock and Roll, thing that he thought the penultimate abbot primate, Dom Nokter Wolf, so as not to miss anything in this merciless and painful decline of the Benedictine glory that was.
.
Question from one million Euros, which should respond to the Holy See, making money in this way this sum to be distributed among the poor of existential suburbs : if a number so worrying and high Benedictine monks, that after becoming abbots of historical abbeys, abbot primate of the Benedictine Confederation, promoted by the Popes and Bishops raised to the dignity of cardinal, Gone are involved in sex scandals, money and even drugs; if they have been elected to the highest offices within the monastic communities, and later within the universal Church, because they were at the time to choose the best, maybe someone intends to question, quickly and well, at what levels can instead be the worst that populate abbeys and monasteries?
.
When this year the abbots of Confederation Benedictine Congregation They gathered in Rome to elect a successor to Dom Nokter Wolf, a couple of friends who have close relationships within the Primatial Abbey of St. Anselm in Urbe, they told me: "For days we have" tasted "a vision “extraordinary”. Under the eyes we had a slew of abbots gathered to elect a new abbot primate '. They concluded by saying: "It seemed to be a gathering of gay pride ».
.
Long would be the origins of speech and of the reasons entirely.The Benedictines, and Germany have always had their largest nucleus and their numerical stronghold, They were severely affected by the best of the worst of the post-conciliar theologians who have given life to their staff Council egomenico. But since the conversation would be precisely along, I will just summarize my old conference in Rieti years ago held together Academician Pontifical John Cavalcoli, in which he for a verse, I on the other hand, We explained to the large audience that the dogma of the crisis generates a doctrinal crisis, then faith. And the loss of the doctrine, consequently the loss of faith dimension, It generates inevitably before the moral crisis and then the worst moral decadence, that is all the fruit and consequence of the doctrinal crisis.
.
one of several booklets of Dom Nokter Wolf, if anything our readers were not yet clear how well not learn from monks like him …
And this moral crisis, the Benedictines are paradigm.Still without generalizing, but reaffirming the principle of the tree and now rotting and diseased plant, in which survive one or two healthy leaves. Therefore, the fall of the Benedictine Basilica erected in Norcia in the birthplace of the Blessed Benedict, It is the visible fall of an order that has long since decayed doctrinally, so morally. Just as it is morally decayed Europe, after having lost the faith. Europe was born as an idea and then developed in a concrete right in the largest of the ancient circuit and glorious Benedictine abbeys, in which, after the fall of Roman Empire, It was first preserved and then spread the best science knowledge; that same Europe of which the Blessed Benedict is the Patron Saint and Venerable, after being in Europe itself the main architect.

REALLY THE "THE PROSELYTISM IS A SOLEMN TRIFLE" AS TOLD THE HOLY FATHER? SOME THINGS TO CLARIFY “PROSELYTIZING” ED “ECUMENISM”
.
In an interview in 2013 the Supreme Pontiff Francis said: "Proselytism is a solemn nonsense ' [cf.WHO]. Some Catholics accused the Successor of Peter to demolish the Catholic doctrine and to contradict the Gospel precept that commands: "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, whoever does not believe will be condemned " [MC 16, 15-16]». Today, the same are relaunching these accusations while the Pope is about to travel to Sweden to participate in the celebration of 500 years of psuedo “reform” Lutheran …
Pope Francis visits the Lutheran Community of Rome
In an interview in 2013 the Supreme Pontiff Francis said: "Proselytism is a solemn nonsense ' [cf.WHO]. Some Catholics accused the Successor of Peter to demolish the Catholic doctrine and to contradict the Gospel precept that commands: "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, whoever does not believe will be condemned "[1]. Today, the same are relaunching these accusations while the Pope is about to travel to Sweden to participate in the celebration of 500 years of psuedo “reform” Lutheran; a visit that perhaps could also avoid, because nothing we Catholics have to celebrate before all'eresiarca Luther. The Vicar of Christ on earth does not need some of our Office defenses, But it is worth remembering that the proselytism, in its negative sense, He has not been convicted only by the Holy Father Francis, but by Jesus Christ Himself: "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!, For you cross land and sea to make one proselyte, and, got it, ye make him a son of hell worse than you!»[2].
.
Several times the Holy Father Francis defined proselytism as contrary to ecumenism, perhaps explaining the troubles which in itself can create proselytism. Then we proceed to clarify, from the same term that could be misunderstood by those who do not first know the etymological root of the words. It derives from "proselyte", the greek Proselyte, lemma used in the New Testament to indicate the "converted", verbatim: He-who-is-approached[3]. The origin of the word has nothing derogatory or inappropriate. In "proselytism" originally simply means "proselytizing", which it is obviously a good work. Except that Christ already shows a completely wrong way to make converts:
.
"Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!, For you cross land and sea to make one proselyte, and, got it, ye make him a son of hell worse than you!»[4].
.
Hence the negative sense of proselytism.so be careful about how we proclaim the Gospel, how we encourage people to repent and to come closer to Christ and the Church, by what means, by what method, with what feelings, for what purpose. We must also ask ourselves: And the true Gospel that we proclaim, or ideas are picked up on by impostors of trendy theology? The work of evangelization, We follow the signs that come from the Church or act to attract the sympathy of the world? In this work we want to state our ideas and attract disciples we applaud, or teach humbly and courageously what the Church teaches accepting suffering and adversities? We are moved by the authentic spirit of service and compassion for sinners, or simply by the desire to impose on others with our doctrinal novelties?
.
The tip does not proselytize on persuasion, but on the suggestion,It does not provide signs of credibility, but playing on sentiment, does not show things difficult, but only the comforts. It does not demonstrate the reasonableness of believing, but it stimulates the emotions, hides one hand the defects of their co-religionists, and exaggerates their quality, while on the other denigrates religion counterparty. Use dishonest means to convince, or exerts undue pressure, prospecting perhaps nonexistent benefits. It is silent on the difficulties of religion that proposes and tickles his passions, It does not stimulate the responsibility, but creates plagiarized persons. No form of free people, but creates, as in the case of Islamists, of lemmings and fanatics, ready if necessary to kill those who do not accept the forced conversion, unaware that the gift of freedom and free will is contained in the mystery of man's creation, to whom God has always offered during the whole of Revelation Mystery, You never have imposed, much less with violence.
.
Proselytism is contrary to ecumenism not because proselytism wants to persuade the other party of the goodness of the values that the proposed, This is also in ecumenism; nor because the proselytizing does convince the separated brother to enter the Catholic Church - even though this is the ultimate goal of ecumenism -, but because the proselytizing refuses to admit that the other party retains certain values of Catholicism, or because they do not want to admit certain historical errors of the Church, or because the proselytizing is his brother with contempt or arrogance. Proselytism, so, It is an excess of zeal, the very uno sleale, by its bitter and aggressive nature in doing a work in itself important and doverosissima: evangelization. It has no reason and supernatural purpose and is based on methods and purposes merely human, unclean or dishonest, sometimes only nationalistic, political or power. It is a job in itself good, but performed poorly, so that you get results illusory or counterproductive: or brother is deceived, or embracing Catholicism of bogus foundations, or embracing a false Catholicism. In these cases the "converts" are not true converts, but people who pretend to believe in order to obtain temporal advantages, or not to be persecuted or marginalized.
.
The Second Vatican Council teaches at No.. 3 from the Bond :"To the only body of Christ on earth" - the Catholic Church - "they should be fully incorporated who already belong in any way to the People of God", ie non-Catholic Christians, belonging to "not small communities, who became separated from full communion with the Catholic Church ". So they must rejoin the Catholic Church. these communities, although sometimes the "deficiencies" serious - heresies - that "constitute impediments to the full ecclesiastical communion", however, they maintain "a certain communion, although imperfect, with the Catholic Church ". In fact, they, though "not enjoy that unity, that Jesus Christ wanted to give to all those whom he regenerated and vivified together for one body and for a new life ", However "they retain some elements and even many and reported" - dogmas -, "By which the Catholic Church itself is built up and vivified. All these things come from Christ and lead to Him, that they belong to the one Church of Christ ", that is the Catholic Church, which he possesses "the fullness of grace and truth", that "only by means of the Catholic Church of Christ, which it is the universal help toward salvation, you can get all the fullness of the means of salvation ". However, "the Spirit of Christ has not refrained from using these communities as means of salvation", useful tools but not sufficient.
.
The non-Catholic communities therefore possess some means of salvation and why, for them all, They must enter the Catholic Church, which alone possesses the fullness of the means of salvation.
.
From this it appears that the Council document, although there are divisions among Christians, this does not mean that the Catholic Church is divided against itself, or that the current conflict between the Catholic Church and other churches will be resolved in the union of all in a supposed "Church" broader and higher, that embraces all, because this is false ecumenism. This supposed "Church", supreme and superior to the Catholic Church, does not exist, why the Church, the only one founded by Christ, is none other than the Roman Catholic Church, one and indivisible, so, in this sense, a Catholic Church separated from the others or herself, that should merge with others in a super-Church, It never existed, nor ever will exist.
.
The non-existence of Christian communities separated from RomeIt is not a sign that the Church's unity is broken, that the Church is as it were "shattered", to which the parties or the Church pieces - the various Churches - should be led back to unity, in the likeness of a vase, that it must be reconstructed by bringing together between them the pieces, why things, as it is also apparent from the n. 3 of this document, they are not like that. Instead, the image that it suggests to us - "they are detached" - is that of the branch that detaches from the vine[5]. The phenomenon of non-Catholic community is not the sign that the screw is torn, is not a sign that it is, as it were, went into shreds: it is obvious that in these conditions the screw may not even live, but it presupposes a very much alive and strong lives, from which They came off the branches. An account is in fact the separation between A and B and an account is the separation of A from B. The phenomenon of the dissident community is of the second type and not the first. Are the branches that can not live without the screw, not vice versa. And if the community separated brethren They are still living, it means that you are not totally detached, but they retain a certain union with the screw. It is that what the Council wishes, when he says that the dissident communities not in full communion with the Catholic Church.
.
But there are also false ecumenicalists they say:we should not put it so tragically. This is not torn or anything like that. The so-called "separate community" from Rome are not really separate, but simply "different". Now, diversity is an asset, It is not a defect. Therefore should not be removed, but respected and promoted. Because of this, Rome, It can not expect that all other communities are equal to itself. It is therefore, according to them, a positive phenomenon, a phenomenon of pluralism and diversity, of different ways, equally legitimate, to live the Gospel and to be Christians. Hence the "many faiths" and the prevailing interest for diversity at the expense of the truth, as one who appreciated the sufferer because it is "different" from the healthy. They conceive of faith as if it were an opinion: as there are many opinions, so there are "many faiths". But faith is the truth and the truth as adherence to the object is a single. If Jesus is God, deny that Jesus is God is not a different faith, but it is a false faith. If God is Triune, deny that God is Triune is not a different faith, It is a falsehood and so on. But there are many truths of faith, in the sense that there are many dogmas; but for each of them it gives only one interpretation, that given by the Church, outside of which there are no other.
.
They conceive the unity and pluralism of the Churchon the model of the Swiss Confederation: no one flock with one shepherd, but a federation of folds in a college of pastors. But if here Jesus speaks to the future - "they will become" - he did not mean that the unity of the Church under him is an eschatological goal, but simply referred to the fact that the time Jesus was calling, She was collecting the sheep - "I have other sheep" - because it was the time of the formation of the Church. But it, to St. Paul's day is already formed, It is already "one body, one Spirit, one hope, one Lord, one faith, one baptism "[6], even if it is like an organic body with many different functions under one head, Christ, whose Vicar on earth is Peter[7].
.
How the Council presents ecumenism, Instead we see how false those conceptions that ecumenism would like to introduce as an interpretation of the doctrine of the Council and would like to call "proselytism" just what the council instead prescribes. This false interpretation, indeed, ecumenism demands that it means simply taking note of the positions of the separated brother in the idea that they simply reflect a "different" way of salvation, that must be respected in its diversity, so the presence in those positions is lost sight, of errors that need to be refuted and then you neglect to open the entrance to his brother in the Catholic Church.
.
Vice by default in the field of ecumenism, typical of modernism, It is given by the negligence, effect in turn indifference and relativism, which it is a false ecumenism. The false ecumenist confuses the value of truth with that of diversity. The modernist ecumenist not care objectivity and universality of truth in its absolute opposition to the false, but be careful only to diversity and makes it an absolute, an idol, which sacrifices the distinction between true and false, reducing everything to the subjective, all'opinabile and "different". For him, one who has fallen into heresy, It is not the victim of false, but it is simply a "different", as well as simply a Franciscan is different from a Dominican. The separated brother It should therefore not be correct, but he left in his idea, as well as to any Dominican we can think of to say to a Franciscan who to save himself must be a Dominican, although the Thomists do not always agree with Scotists.
.
Today, with the excuse of ecumenism,pluralism and freedom of thought, We do not notice the endangered brothers, of those who live "in darkness and the shadow of death", so nothing is done to save them. He responds to God asking his brother account: "Am I my brother's keeper"?[8]. Here then per slack, negligence, skepticism, fear, opportunism or acquiescence to sin, It does not understand or will not understand that admonish the sinner in a correct manner and at the right time is not a fight, a convict, a bother him or violence, is not one tear to his right beliefs, but it is to be a caring doctor who provides care, is a work of mercy.
.
Another misconception of ecumenism It is one that conceives it as a simple "meet halfway" between Catholics and non-Catholics, as if the one and the other part were to leave something to meet the other. Now this may be true and proper to the human level and charity, but not in relation to the demands of the truth, which they are those that most characterize Ecumenism. Indeed, to stop the only relationship with the Lutherans, which it is the greatest problem of ecumenism, these brothers must realize that it is not Rome that must allow correct Luther, but it is they who must leave correct from Rome. So Rome can and should meet them in charity, my he path of truthThey must do everything their way to Rome, waiting for them with open arms, we certainly can not be the ones to go to celebrate Luther, as if he had really been a reformer.
.
Another form of ecumenism wrongis to those Catholics who, on the basis of their studies they consider more advanced, They allow themselves to be accused of injustice and excessive severity convictions against Luther uttered by Pope Leo X and the Council of Trent, as if the Church has not noticed that on certain issues it considered heretics Lutherans, he was not a heretic, but Catholic. Now, if such judgment may be worth against certain opponents of Luther passionate, hasty, indeed unjust and overly strict, that they have misunderstood some of his intentions and positions, This judgment is completely senseless and gravely insulting and presumptuous, when referring to the interventions made by the Church, especially by scholars who call themselves Catholics, who forget that the Church, if it is infallible in teaching us the truth of faith, It is infallible also in directing what is contrary.
.
True ecumenism It is framed with all its consequent difficulties in the broader evangelization accomplished in charity, justice and mercy. Therefore, it takes some evangelical paradigms, as the following: it is headed first to the parables of the prodigal son and his lost sheep, without forgetting the parable of the king who gave a wedding feast for his son and sends his servants to call those invited to the wedding[9]. The Catholic Church is this banquet and the guests are separated brethren. We know that many of them do not feel at all prodigals O lost sheep, but the great theologians and biblical scholars. And they do not see in the Catholic Church no buffet, but only bleak and food gone bad, or at least one of those meetings where student to be able to eat you have to bring along their own. But that means then that initial and indispensable task of ecumenism is that Catholics do understand these brothers, with all charity, skill and patience, in need of conversion and that the light of the world are not theirs, but the light comes from Rome.
.
Blessed Pontiff Pius IX, imminence of the Second Vatican Council's call, He wrote the Apostolic Letter Now you all [10]Protestants to invite them to join the Roman Church. A similar initiative also took the Venerable Pope Pius XII in the Encyclical mystical body [11]the 1943. Unfortunately the response was very weak. In the meantime there were frequent ecumenical meetings between non-Catholics, but the Papacy, at the moment, was not conducive to that they will participate Catholics too, for fear that it could somehow spread the idea among the dissidents that Rome had given up his primacy. Meanwhile, however, he was growing among many Christians, Catholics and non-Catholics, perhaps as a reaction to the horrors of the recent World War, the desire to gather together in the common values. It so happened that the Second Vatican Council went to meet this desire with the Decree on Ecumenism, in which, however, it is stressed very clearly the value of papal primacy and the Catholic Church itself.
.
Ecumenical activities belong to all Christiansdesirous of unity and communion, but it is clear that the Supreme Pontiff, as the Vicar of Christ, common father of all Christians, beginning, ensures, guardian and promoter of unity of all the sons of God, It can not help but feel supremely desire that all the disciples of Christ is currently separated or dissidents enter fully into the Church founded by him and not feel involved in the first person to operate all we can for this purpose. The frequent visits that the Popes by the end of the Council are in their travels to separated brethren, express and embody the hope of all Catholics that these brothers, as the Council says, 'Be fully incorporated "to the Catholic Church.
.
Ecumenism theologians of both parties play an important role in the clarification and proposed solutions always open disputes. Catholic theologians operate effectively against the non-Catholic party showing the points of Catholic doctrine absent in their theology, while addressing the objections against Catholicism. But it is clear that the points that most concern the Doctrine of the Faith, only the Roman Pontiff can have the last word, for ribadirli, or to clarify them or to correct or to address concerns. These points engage the faith and not simply theology, They can then be treated with definitive authority only by the Supreme Pontiff.
.
The separated brother, so, It is not simply a "different" to respect and leave as is, to "let free", as some say, because this is a convenient excuse for shirking their responsibilities. The separated brother It is an erring brother, in good or bad faith, which it is in danger of being lost, so it should be helped, warned and corrected, always naturally that you leave correct. Of course, to rebuke or expose the superb it is just to pull him his hatred with the result that the face of more and worse. A Jesus himself was costly rebuke the Pharisees, but on the other hand, we should not follow his example? And they did not do so all the saints? What is the saint who has not pulled on him the hatred of the world and false brothers? Who does not care about the sinner and not reproaches, being able to do it, She says she loves him, but really he hates him and himself. Do not forget that even the reproach made in a correct manner is charity, this is also ecumenism. It is not only the charity Mercy, but also the severity.
.
Ecumenism has two purposes. It has as its immediate end and more specifically to do so, through dialogue and a joint search, that all Christians are found together in the sharing of the same fundamental truths, that were common to all, even after breakage. Must here know each other better, with greater benevolence and with a historical-critical method more effective than that of the past, dispel some misconceptions or correct some errors in interpretation of the past., illustrate common truth.
.
This being together in the same truth, It is already a great achievement, It is a high and beautiful destination, source of harmony and peace; But, It is not an end in itself, there is still some way to go, because it is only the basis for the continuation of a fruitful and constructive dialogue, whose goal further to put on the table frankly, objectivity, serenity and hope the controversial points. It is at this point that we need more than ever to invoke the Holy Spirit. This is the most difficult point, where dialogue today is jammed and was sometimes even falsified. We must have the courage to go beyond, toward the final goal. Indeed, while Catholics make too much respect, They seem intimidated, without taking apostolic initiatives in front of the rigid positions and exhibitions of non-Catholics, the latter - we think especially the Protestants - theologians seem rather have tacitly or explicitly made a wicked pact, a dangerous liaison, with modernist theologians, in order to penetrate the Protestant ideas among Catholics, in a subtle form and masked, under color of "progressivism", so that Catholics become Protestants in fact without realizing and believing that they remain Catholic, thereby giving rise to a colossal falsification of ecumenism.
.
Let's take an example of this deadlock in which clearly it appears the resistance of the dissidents and the weakness of the arguments and took the position of Catholics, which often, instead of supporting the papal authority with good reason, refuting the Protestant positions, showing little respect for the Pontifical Authority or despising the post-conciliar exercise, as do the Lefebvrians; or weakening its doctrinal strength, like the modernists. But here is an example: truth of faith accepted by all Christians is that Christ is the head of the Celestial Church, ma, outside of Catholics, all others believe to be the truth of faith that Christ's earthly governments Church by means of a Vicar established by him, ie the Supreme Pontiff, Successor of Peter, as the visible head of all Christians on this earth, but the government in person through the Holy Spirit.
.
The idea of the Roman Pontiff as head of the Church and representative of Christ on earth, the eyes of non-Catholics would be a human invention, an injustice in Rome, desire to dominate, longing of the Roman Empire, misleading and dangerous, because the Supreme Pontiff, that man is fallible like everyone else, instead lead us to Christ, could stand against Him. The Supreme Pontiff, at maximum, It will be the Bishop of Rome, or a bishop like everyone else, Peter's successor just because Peter was bishop in Rome, but he can not claim to be the Bishop of the Universal Church. For them, Christ, He would not want to be his Vicar visible head, but the earthly Church would be well enough organized as a set of communities united under the leadership of Christ and the Holy Spirit. Such as infallible guides of these? would this, according to them, the true will of Christ. Here's an important issue, about which we Catholics are called to give evidence and to show separated brethren, with all charity and wisdom, but also with sure competence and unswerving firmness and clarity, the way to get closer to Rome and, as the Council says, for you to, under the motion of the Holy Spirit, 'They are fully incorporated "in the Church. We do not have to, on a point like this, resign ourselves to their unbelief, or give them the impression that we give them reason, or we are going to celebrate, instead of correcting them.
.
Ecumenism also involves two levels of implementation.They are the doctrinal and charitable, which will involve and support each other. It is based on the first to move to the second. The second one, however, It is of immediate and easy implementation, while the first, at least in its final fullness, It is very difficult to achieve and has not yet been fully achieved. The doctrinal level is the most specific, and is nothing more than an application of the general duty of evangelization in the field of the relations of Catholics with non-Catholic Christians. the evangelization, in general, It is the proclamation of the Gospel, by means of which, with the help of the Holy Spirit, we lead the world to obey Christ.
.
With l'ecumenism, we Catholics, based on the common acceptance, together with i separated brethren, of those truths of faith that we have in common with them, we work so that they, freed from "impediments" and those "deficiencies", which act as obstacles to their taking the "fullness of that truth which has been entrusted to the Catholic Church" can, under the motion of the Holy Spirit, be "fully incorporated" in the Catholic Church[12].
.
the Catholic, in the exercise of this delicate appearance or level of ecumenism, It must be very careful to distinguish the doctrine Catholic in itself, in its divine fullness, unerringly and perfectly preserved by the Magisterium of the Church, which must always be the head with total fidelity, from the his personal Catholic culture, which, however pure and orthodox, It can not be infallible, for which it can, on some points, be incomplete or erroneous, without his being aware of it. Because of this, while a non-Catholic can not afford to correct or supplement the Catholic doctrine as such, may very well, by virtue of his knowledge of the truths of the Christian faith, correcting or instructing a Catholic, that lacks on a given point.
.
The other level of ecumenism It is an application of the general virtue of charity to the specific field of ecumenism. And here it is clear that if in the Catholic doctrine will guide the non-Catholic, and will help him to correct his mistakes and to fill the gaps, as the Council teaches, in this aspect of charity is a must reciprocity, Since the Catholic as the non-Catholic does not escape the common condition of sinners, sons of Adam, with the same time of mutually complementary gifts from God, which must be put to good use for the benefit of each other. And though the Catholic in principle have more and better means of grace that no dissident, it is not inconceivable that these are more virtuous and less sinful, through increased goodwill and a better use of supernatural means at its disposal.
.
L'ecumenism, undoubted expression of brotherly love, It encloses its profound benefits and is a good rule of peaceful coexistence between Catholics and non-Catholics. Now, brotherly love is moving in two directions: do good and remove evil. There is therefore a charity promoter and a corrective charity. Both have their application in ecumenism. Indeed, in the promotion of good, Ecumenism encourages humility, loyalty, the Onesti, I love the truth, mutual understanding and solidarity, the shared commitment to works of justice and mercy, for the public good and human rights, for the promotion of science, arts and culture, a common Christian witness, where there are common values.
.
There are two ways to remove the evil in his brother: or compassion, thanks to which we free his brother from the evil of punishment, ie from suffering, or correction or admonition, for which we free him from the evil of guilt, from sin and error. In both cases, order for the operation to succeed, must the brother put us the good will. There are none so ill that does not heal and there is no greater sinner than you does not repent.
.
In this field of charity, is the compassion that the correction should push the Catholic zeal to lead the separated brother towards the fullness of truth and of communion with the Church. the dissident, for its part, He must listen to the impulses of the Spirit of truth and love, that led him to abandon his mistakes and bad habits, not conform to the fullness of Christian virtue and to seek full communion with the Church.

There are no "cases" to evaluate whether to grant communion to divorced and remarried [Ed. in reference to previous answers given by the FathersWHO]. However, there is one and the same "case" that would allow the divorced and remarried to receive Communion and that is that they live as "brother and sister". The N. 84 from the Familiar Consortium denies access to the remarried Communion for the simple fact that they do not being in a state of Grace, "Eat their condemnation" approaching this Sacrament. The speech of the scandal to the faithful is totally secondary to the main motivation.

Dear Reader.
Nine out of ten of his comments were not published because they contained seriously insulting statements towards the Supreme Pontiff, variously referred to her as “heretic“, “acolyte Antichrist” and so on; not to mention the way in which you usually demonize the Second Vatican Council and its documents, But he defends a sword No.. 84 from the Familiar Consortium, I assume that is for her as for other more important than faith Nicene Creed.
.
We are not aware that the apostolic exhortation love joy He has now changed for the discipline. So it is pointless to raise a question that does not exist, because the Pope has never established any official document that the provisions contained in n. 84 of the apostolic exhortation Familiar Consortium [cf.WHO] it is repealed. Therefore, we all pastors in the care of souls, we stick scrupulously to what is the current discipline of the Church in matters. But if a bishop or priest does not, wrong, but wrong - if we want to seriously - in his personal, not because the Pope has established the doctrine and discipline contrary to Catholic morality.
.
Unfortunately, there are "Catholics" on the one hand discuss and reject in whole disciplines of an ecumenical council, ie the last celebrated by the Church, feeling not only with a clear conscience, but so much the right to consider themselves the Heralds of the Truth. So what you want it, the confrontation, discuss without rejecting the n. 84 from the Familiar Consortium ? Indeed, to certain Heralds of the Truth - Including the other papessa, Mrs. Maria Guarini blog Church and Council Post [see our letter WHO] — , maybe it is good to remember that the author of today often quoted n. 84 from the Familiar Consortium, the Holy Pontiff John Paul II, after Blessed Pope Paul VI was the second largest actuator of that Vatican Council II, namely that council by those referred to as “source of all current ills of the Church”.
.
I believe that people accustomed to think and act in this way They should bring order in themselves, because before trumpeting the n. 84 from the Familiar Consortium, should accept in toto the authority of an entire council, except fall, if not, as the Lady Cristina Siccardi that I mentioned in my previous article [cf.WHO], in psychology borderline, which is exactly the following: “Long live the n. 84 from the Familiar Consortium the Pope reconcile, Down with I conciliabolo Vatican II celebrated by the Church Fathers gathered in the ecumenical seated ” (!?).
.
I think equally important to recall to all of them - the speech and action of which moves in a frightening ecclesial and doctrinal confusion - that John Paul II, elected as their darling for the n. 84 from the Familiar Consortium elevated to intangible dogma Faith, is the same John Paul II from them vilified in the fierce way for its ecumenical encounters in Assisi.
.
And since I do the priest and theologian and not the psychiatrist, you know well that before similar personalities suffering from such disorders bipolar spectrum [cf. WHO], throw in the towel and step dutifully to another kind of specialist expertise, namely to neuropsychiatrists.
.
Regrets that Mrs. Cristina Siccardi followed to try their hand at rants fanta ecclesiological fiercely anti-conciliar serialized on that gloomy site Pharisees which has shrunk now Levied Christian [seeWHO]. Because what the Fathers of’Patmos Island ask certain people, is just a little’ the basic spirit of human and Christian integrity. Or maybe they really believe they can attack from a part the whole Magisterium of the Church of the last fifty years, but at the same time argue that the n. 84 from the Familiar Consortium, written by a Pope to reconcile, present as a bishop at the council, then the council actuator as Successor of Peter, both more important and more dogmatic than will the entire Prologue of John's Gospel, which tells the mystery of God's Word [cf. WHO]?
.
Where does this obsession on the topic of Communion for divorced and remarried? But it is obvious: It comes from the morbid pant theology [cf. My previous article WHO], thanks to which some people identify the sex and human sexuality not only the sin of sins, but the center and the engine of the entire mystery of evil.
.
We urge consistency. That consistency based on fides and on the ratio human and Christian. But unfortunately, these people, of forms of genuine ideological hatred have structured their anger against the Church and against Peter, reducing everything to an obsessive pant theology. And the anger against the Church and hatred against Peter, Catholic do not have anything, with all due respect to the Heralds of the Truth, of all their papesse and obsession with pant theology, in virtue of which they are induced to ignore a whole series of serious sins ranging from the waist up, but of which these people do not want to just talk, sure as I am that the sins are only those that go from the waist down.
.
.
.
The Siccardi as traditionalists sites you mentioned are based, in most cases, to distinguished Catholic theologians who certainly can not be accused of ignorance or ridiculousness, I refer to Romano Amerio and Brunero Gherardini. Answer, if you can, to parrot, and then you can afford to be accused of heresy the Siccardi and all sites "siccardiani", But to hell with them in the group of heretics and proud, It will put us well Gherardini and Amerio, if he can, is intende. I wish you a good job …

Dear Reader.
I did not know that Romano Amerio and Brunero Gherardini were the Dad and the Son from which the proceeds Holy Spirit, that "with the Father and the Son is worshiped and glorified, he has spoken through the prophets".
.
She responds rather to himself: it is best to refer to the supreme magisterium of the Popes - including all those that go from San Giovanni XXIII to follow - or is it better to refer to the above Dad e Son Used and abused by some people to discredit and attack the papal magisterium, not to mention the dangerous thought gherardiniano, followed in this by Serafino Lanzetta, about the Second Vatican Council "only pastoral", ie ... with no weight and account, "not being", to say these theologians, "dogmatic", so, de facto, non-binding ?

Quote the Iota Romano Amerio s'esso as he was above the Profession of Faith, to hit through it Peter, as certain Catholics, It is simply absurd.

I am writing to express to you the following concerns: I think your Catholic response to Luther [Ed. cf. WHOe WHO] It is likely to be a little stronger because you accuse ideas, but then shows the sources. In fact, some would have to say sfacciatezza “but look what Luther did not say that, neither she wanted to say this!”. Also one thing to Luther and the Lutherans have an account that are inspired by Luther, who claim not to share any ideas of their illustrious predecessor and not be required to do so; then there are those who simply declare Protestants and are inspired by aspects of the thought of Luther and his “Reform” but on other points they keep their distance. It's clear that, if this is the situation, both Lutherans and Protestants may have easily evading game criticism and accusations of Catholic theologians: This means that even when you are feeling the Lutheranism and the various Protestant theologians and preachers is important to cite sources.
Letter Signed

.
Luther's theses I quoteor to which I refer in my last article [cf. WHO] They have been known for centuries, least among connoisseurs of Luther and relate to well-known convictions of the Church. The sources, in addition to those cited by me, are located in the Authors to which reference.
. I not therefore ask the reader to trust my authority;but he can control by means of my cross-references both to the authors that the Magisterium of the Church. .
The intent of my articleit was not to expose my new interpretation of the Lutheran thought. Only in that case I should abound in citations of sources, in order to document and prove my assumption and refute opponents. So in my article I did not say anything new, that is not already known by critics, but but it is likely to be forgotten by the current celebratory rhetoric. .
Delivery My intent instead wasinformative and educational,but also of theological study, in the context of ecumenism and of Catholic, is to make known to the Catholic culture media some valid points of Luther's thought and is to refute errors, which today does little, while praising Luther inappropriately, so these errors are likely to delight even the Catholics.
.
I am not a historian of Lutheranism, but a theologian.For this I do Luther as such; I do not care the various interpretations of his more or less faithful followers, embellishments or cuts that they operate in the thought of their master.
. I will not put myself in this quagmire,although I recognize that the thought of Luther, in its richness and complexity, but also for the inconsistency, ambiguity, darkness and paradoxical nature of some of his positions, It can require you to consult its authoritative followers and ensure that certain interpretations of his thought remain dubious or uncertain.
.
So I ask the reader who wants to judge me, to stay in what I say about Luther and not what they say Lutherans, which I do not even mention in my article.

Writes Father John Cavalcoli: "As I have explained publicly on several occasions on the Island of Patmos and elsewhere, the Pope has, under the power of the keys, the right at its discretion to change the laws of the Church, although founded on divine right. Now the law of exclusion of remarried divorcees from Eucharistic Communion is one of these ' [cf. WHO]. I'm sorry but change the laws founded on divine right is not possible because it is precisely the divine right and then to his immutable nature. The Pope by virtue of the keys has no authority to change what God has established, if it did commit an abuse and his teachings on the subject would not be binding, as an expression of a pseudo pastoral teaching (not dogmatic and therefore not infallible), whose falsity is obvious insofar as it departs from the Catholic dogma to chase false modern philosophies, repository of all heresy.
Athanasius
.
Dear Reader.
we must distinguish the 'institution of the sacraments from the discipline of the sacraments. The first is due to Christ and forms the divine or divine law right; the second was entrusted by Christ to Peter, and is the canon law or ecclesiastical law.
.
The ban on Communion for divorced and remarried, still in force under the The joy of love, certainly it is founded on divine right, but not so necessary and stringent, that, if the Pope tomorrow will, He has no power, according to the power of the keys (discipline of the sacraments), grant permission Communion in special cases, to be determined by the law.
.
It can be said that even this permit will be based on divine right, although with different reasons from those which justified the prohibition. Indeed, while this, as it is clear from the n. 84 from the Family member company, It was motivated by the opportunity to avoid scandal, any permission given by the Holy Father Francis, as shown by The joy of love ((c). VIII), It may be motivated by the opportunity to provide the couple with additional means of grace, such as to enable them to cope with greater confidence and supernatural force the duties of their state, who, constituting a strong occasion of sin, as it was irregular, It appears to be a more difficult path to salvation, than that of the regular pairs.
.
We here another way to respect the dignity of marriage, of Confession and the Eucharist, ie the divine right, suitable to their situation, and different from the one implemented by regular couples and other than that provided by law of prohibition.
.
It will be well that the Supreme Pontiff emanates an Instruction for Confessors, in order to help them to the proper administration of the sacrament in this matter so complex and difficult, as is that of the state of remarried divorcees, distinguishing between cases in which the confessors can admit them to the sacraments from those in which they can not, and leaving to them a sufficient space for discernment and decision.

S. AND. Mons. Luigi Negri, Archbishop of Ferrara-Comacchio
On behalf of myself and the priest Ariel S confrere. Levi di Gualdo, with whom I send back the beautiful experience of this ever most visited online magazine The Isle of Parmos, I wish to express my warmest congratulations for acute critical observations that Your Excellency Rev.ma expressed in the recent interview with Helm, then reported the following New Daily Compass [cf. WHO]. Nevertheless I dare to expose some of my reservations about the following points:
.
1) The talk of faith as "experience" It is already a grant to Luther what does not should be granted, since experience is the property of love and not of the faith. And indeed, precisely, Luther just confuses the faith with the charity. It would be better instead to refer to the true concept of faith taught by Vatican Council I: «FFaith is a supernatural virtue, via, God's help and the help of grace, he had revealed to be true, not because of the intrinsic truth of the things perceived by the natural light of reason?, but because of the authority of God himself » [Denz. 3008] [1]
.
His judgment on Lutheranism, one part is too forgiving, but on the other it is too severe.
.
a) Too indulgent, why present it as simply "different" or different from Catholicism means giving him a driver's legitimacy. In fact, being different or different is an asset and not a defect. A Franciscan is different from the Dominican; but not the Franciscan being is a defect or heresy. We must say frankly that instead of just what Luther did against Catholicism is not “different”, ma fake.
.
b) But you have not even too accentuate errors. So it is not appropriate to speak of difference "immeasurable": in reality, as noted by the Decree on Ecumenism Reintegratio [cf. WHO], we and the Lutherans have a common measure, which is Christ, from which the fundamental dogmas come, that have remained in common: the Holy Trinity, the Incarnation, the Redemption, Baptism, in the common love for the Bible and the faith that we are saved by grace. Ignore these common data is unjust and offensive to the Lutherans.
.
2) Nor do I agree with the defeatist attitude of Jean Guitton. He seems to say,: “They are hopelessly different. Let them so”. Not at all! This is not the teaching of Unity redirection which instead he says to the n. 3 that the separated brethren "must be incorporated into the Catholic Church", which obviously supposes that in the "recognition of common values" we help them to correct themselves from their mistakes.
. The church, in conclusion, commands us to have the attitude that for them the doctor against the sick. The doctor from the consideration of healthy resources, which remain ill, relying on them to prescribe the most appropriate and best care.
.
With sincere devotion, his
Giovanni Cavalcoli, o.p.

MY GOOD VOICES FROM CINEMA EROTIC SEVENTIES:ALLEGED "Heresies PAPAL" THE COMMUNION TO DIVORCED, CRISTINA SICCARDI THE SABAUDA, ANDREA TORNIELLI TO GOGNA …
.
there is no sin so serious, from which you can not break free and divine forgiveness. We should not assume that the divorced and remarried are always in a state of mortal sin. This would be a rash judgment, that would deny free will, as Luther did, and the power of divine grace.
The ban on communion for divorced and remarried is not a mere ecclesiastical law that the Pope can abolish, but it depends directly on the divine right, which requires a student to be in the grace of God to communion. For thus says the Council of Trent: "If anyone says that faith is sufficient preparation for receiving the sacrament of the Holy Eucharist, let him be anathema ".

Dear David,.
the post-synodal exhortation of the Holy Father Francis
The Pope has already explained in 'The joy of love that remarried divorcees, though it is in an irregular status, which strongly induces to sin and though they can also commit mortal sins, however, if they repent and do penance, They can regain the grace. That is why, in principle, They could go to Communion.
.
Remember that there is no sin so serious, from which you can not break free and divine forgiveness. We should not assume that the divorced and remarried are always in a state of mortal sin. This would be a rash judgment, that would deny free will, as Luther did, and the power of divine grace. If they fall into sin, they can always regain grace.
.
The Supreme Pontiff signed the Post-Synodal Exhortation
Dad, once it was to give Communion to divorced and remarried in a canonically correct document, not attenterà to any divine law. Indeed, in this matter the divine laws in play are two: the law of the indissolubility of marriage and the sanctity of Holy Communion.
.
To understand the meaning of the ecclesiastical law change, that the Pope should prepare to do - from the prohibition of Communion to the permission of Communion -, We have to make the following considerations:
.
.
1) It should be noted an underlying theme, now it is known to all, which it is the basis of the pontificate of Pope Francis, and is that of mercy, understood here as research and willingness to do everything possible, even better than the past, to make available salvation to those who are most at risk. And it is the case of divorced and remarried along with many other cases.
2) It is true that God can save even without the Sacraments [cf. WHO]; but if it is possible to open the door of the Sacraments to a greater number of available people, without offending the dignity of the Sacraments, it's better, and indeed it is right;
3) Pope Francis invites us, on this issue, to turn our gaze in a different direction from that of the past. Up to San Giovanni Paolo II [CF. Familiar Consortium n.84] the church, about the problem of pastoral care for the divorced and remarried, he had under his eyes the dignity of the Sacrament and the public scandal given by the divorced and remarried (“It was irregular”, “public sinners”).
.
The Reigning Pontiff, instead, without of course aside these considerations, It invites us to take rather that God may grant to remarried divorcees, in some cases - to be specified by the new law -, to be in grace, despite their irregular status.
.
4) The granting of the Holy Communion in those particular cases would not be offensive to the sacrament of marriage, but it would safeguard the dignity, although in different ways and even it is contrary to what so far has followed the ministry to divorced and remarried.
.
the post-synodal exhortation of the Holy Father Francis
This is the most difficult point to understand.The moral principle says so: "One and the same moral law, intelligently interpreted, It can be applied in ways materially inconsistent, depending on the circumstances'.
.
Take the case of the commandment Do not kill. Just this command allows you to kill the unjust aggressor, but there is not space here to explain this apparent paradox, for which reference to a treatise of moral theology.
.
Regarding our case, we can then say that the law of the indissolubility of marriage may continue to be respected in certain circumstances, not only with the prohibition of Communion, but also by making it, provided that the divorced and remarried are in a particular situation, which must be specified by the new law.

Dear Father Ariel.
This war on the field of the Communion for divorced and remarried is getting stronger. Some say that you should not obey the Pope because it is wrong. Then I wonder: who can judge if the Pope is wrong, do not obey him and invite to disobey? the, as a woman, as well as Piedmontese, I am irritated by some comments about carbolic acid covered in honey written by Cristina Siccardi on various blogs, then cited by others as a truth of faith. This writer is probably a star of theology? As a priest, how she reacts, in front of certain subjects?

Edwige Fenech, film poster The doctor of the military district, left Alvaro Vitali, very talented stage actor discovered by Federico Fellini. But how he had this to say: « … the theater is an art that does not pay, while with light flicks I could support his family »
Years ago I explained in my book that everyone is able to obey an authority figure with a strong personality, spirituality and holiness of life, but this is not the challenge of faith addressed to priests and religious, nor to lay Catholic. The challenge is to obey a bishop or major superior to a fragile, limited and mediocre, provided that he does not command things contrary to the doctrine and the Magisterium of the Church and do not use its authority to commit crimes and offenses, because in that case you are required to disobey imperative for the Christian conscience and to inform the supreme ecclesiastical authority of its abuses, order is restored justice violated.
.
If theRoman PontiffHe gives me a wrong order and I was aware of what, First I would try to convince him of the error and demonstrate the substantial mistake the given command, But if it were to maintain in this case the eseguirei, unless it was not contrary to the deposit of credit and Catholic morality. He said this would add: I do not know who can demonstrate how many commands given by the Roman Pontiffs in the course of Church history results are in conflict with deposit of credit and Catholic morality, because I personally do not know of any case.
.
Why is it better to make a mistake to make an order that may appear incorrectly, instead of making the right choice by disobeying the Roman Pontiff? Because in the second case the error would be more and more serious. Then the Roman Pontiff will have to answer before men and history, but especially before God, if it had imposed the wrong order.
.

Affirm this, and maybe blind obedience in contrast with the logic, free will and human dignity, as some tend to believe, marching on those “good intentions” whose streets are paved Hell? Far from it, assert that means to proceed on the path of prudent wisdom. Indeed, the Roman Pontiff enjoys special assistance from the Holy Spirit, therefore a grace which was not enjoyed by individual bishops, priests and even lay Catholics. If in the history of the Church has no memory of erroneous commands imposed by contrasting with the Popes deposit of credit and Catholic morality, Instead they have abundant evidence of how right they later were seen in the years ahead of the choices on the spot hotly contested. This is based on the obedience of believers of Christ and gods ministers of the sacred : the prudent and wise understanding that the Roman Pontiff has a special grace of state and entitled to special assistance of the Holy Spirit that makes it infallible in matters of doctrine and faith [refer to the article of John Cavalcoli: The tasks and the degrees of the infallibility of the Supreme Pontiff, WHO]. And who does not accept this, assuming, if anything, to be invested for greater grace was the power of judgment on certain decisions of the Roman Pontiff on matters of doctrine and faith, or is a heretic, or simply a fool, I saw that the heresy in itself calls for intelligence and talent. And if you always heretics I take them seriously with due respect, fools take them instead around …
.
The Reigning Pontiff, that "deserves" respectful criticism with the devotion due to the Successor of the Prince of the Apostles and Vicar of Christ on earth, He has never given orders, in no act of their supreme magisterium, which are contrary to Catholic faith and morals; and whoever claims otherwise shows at best not to be able to make elementary distinctions between private doctor, the ordinary pastoral ministry, the supreme Magisterium of Peter. Or better understood: It is shown not to know the basics of the Catechism of the Catholic Church, then giving rise to questions only intended to disorient and simple to sow the poison of confusion among the people of God [I refer to my previous article, WHO].
.
For this I have never raised the issue "This Pope we do not like"[Gnocchi & palmar, cf. WHO], and I never fell into the traps of some strong criticism in this pontificate, brandishing towards it charges more or less subtle heresy, formulated through the theories served up by overt heretics unrepentant, how those Lefebvre to be discovered in the aforementioned Christian Siccardi recalled from our Reader, and to which I come now with joy and happiness …

nadia cassini, film poster The teacher dances with the whole class. Top another great actor of Italian theater: Renzo Montagnani [1930-1997]. He, too, had this to say: "In Italy with the theater he caught you hunger, with light flicks you shop for the home kitchen '
… I do not know who this Lady who writes about Siccardiana correspondence, already Correspondence Romana, on which occasionally has delighted readers with articles rose on the Royal House of pirates, anticlerical Freemasons and these were the Savoy [cf, WHO, WHO, etc..], or on levied Siccardiana, already Levied Christian, where articles are published every year to commemorate with the tear to the eye of that figure holy man Benito Mussolini [cf. WHO, WHO, WHOetc..]. At this point I note by the way, before proceeding over, at what levels reach the spirit of these people that thunder for two years against any sacrilege of communion for divorced and remarried persons, including accusations of heresy and some columnist who even invites to resist with disobedience to the Supreme Pontiff. Well, despite their rigor toward adultery and cohabitees, to keep as far away from these Eucharistic canteens, If the adulterer is however the former Duce of Italy, married with children, or her lover and accomplice close friend in adultery, heard what sweetness and Christian charity express the tender souls of levied Siccardiana:
.
"The exact circumstances, the place, time, where they were killed Mussolini and Claretta Petacci, whose only crime was love for Duce, It was in turn covered by a part of history that had a vested interest in spreading a stereotyped vision of events in which there was very little decent and honest " [cf. WHO].
.
Movie poster busted, gassed completely melted, behind Edwige Fenech actor Enrico Maria Salerno [1926-1994] famous for being one of the great actors of the Italian theater among the most gifted in the interpretation of the most disparate roles
Oh, poor Claretta, sweet unhappy creature, considered by bloody rabble partisan and by historical dishonest guilty of having given to adultery with Benito Mussolini. In conclusion, what's wrong with it? What's wrong, to love a married man, husband and father of four children?
.
Once written similar amenities, the same people then go to comb through old articles of the Vatican correspondent Andrea Tornielli, these days in the pillory because “reo” of having reported the news regarding the events of Ettore Gotti Tedeschi and the IOR in a way “uneven” the antecedents of 2013 [cf. WHO]. Well, if from 2013 al 2016 the accounts given by the Holy See or by the Archbishop George Ganswein it differs, the fault lies not with the Vatican expert who reported the facts as they were presented, but who over time has changed version. This is perhaps a Vatican “guilty” not to have pointed out this discrepancy, as Roberto de Mattei says so right on a formal level [cf. WHO]? I honestly do not know which of us, He is having written in the space of three years beyond 200 articles, can remember the precise passage and the exact detail of one of them; What this is true of all the publicists, but for all, including Andrea Tornielli working alone, what I doubt Roberto de Mattei does instead, on the basis of a simple calculation based on his writings and activities. Indeed, Roberto de Mattei, He is engaged as an academic at the European University, Director of Correspondence Romana, director of the monthly Christian roots, director of the Lepanto Foundation, promoter March for Life, consultant to several institutions, author of an average of two articles per week with extra articles published also on The Republic e The Gazette, author of two books a year, He engaged in numerous appearances as a lecturer in Italy and abroad … it is not by chance that this man of the help of collaborators ready to seek benefits sighs and commas of articles written to three years away from a Vatican expert who works alone, so all in all honest and without paleologi–palletizers on its payroll? Come on, you monsters to Andrea Tornielli least the same pity that certain subjects show for Benito Mussolini and Claretta Petacci sweet, which it was not - as many might think, obviously wrong - his mistress, her his concubine, she who helped him to commit adultery at the expense of the legitimate wife Donna Rachele. Absolutely not! Claretta was the only woman who "loved the Duce" and that perhaps the columnists of levied Siccardiana they would not hesitate to admit to the sacraments, together with all well-known womanizer of the House of Savoy, including the last king of Italy, Umberto II, an "honest man" dear to the pink of journalism Siccardi [cf. WHO], also separated from his wife and a nidata of children along with their children have plunged this house of pirates ridicule of the tabloid press and deserved the talk show televisions [see the last glorious heir to the House of Savoy, video WHO].

film poster The teacher, with the inevitable Edwige Fenech and Alvaro Vitali
… But back to the Siccardi, whose crass ignorance,with regard to the Church's history and fundamental theology, to me indeed to spare. And it's not my judgment ungenerous, because such crass ignorance oozes from his books, articles and video-conferences, which are public documents, non-confidential material or material covered by Privacy Act. But since you can bacchettare the reigning Pontiff up to accuse him of heresy, I just want to see if it is not to criticize this lady claims the legitimate freedom to bacchettare like a conductor the entire teaching of the Church of the last fifty years, again according to his books and articles, I repeat that public acts are and shall remain. Therefore worth revisited told: “Who acid injures die by acid”.
.
I was then asked how I react before certain figures. To understand this it should first be given that I am not only the son of Dante Alighieri, but also by Giovanni Boccaccio, Pietro Aretino, Cecco Angiolieri and so. Given the above, They say they are not accustomed take seriously some people, I tend to make fun of them and the Profitable circulate the tradi–Protestants which they are derived in part their place in the sun and part of their publishing market, between halberdiers boasting quarters of nobility among the laces&laces of Masses in the ancient rite and aspiring Contessine by Liala novel that poignant recollections of the House of Savoy. I prefer to throw it into a joke, also because this lady from the voice miagolosa, It reminds me of certain actresses erotic film of the seventies. Obviously I am referring to the item, be clear: only to the Voice. Also because we are talking about a sex cinema that nowadays is accordingly punished and modest point that these old films could be screened in cinemas schools for children of the Daughters of Mary Help of Christians.
.
Lilli Carati, film poster Professor of Natural Sciences. Also in the program of this lightweight comedy, stand out the names of some of the largest and most talented actors of the Italian theater of the twentieth century
Hearing the voice miagolosa the Siccardi - Objective observation, certainly not irreverent mockery [cf. audio WHO] - I was reminded of the actresses who also spoke with voices miagolose : Edwige Fenech ago The doctor of the military district [cf. WHO]; Glory in the shoes of the Guide night nurse [cf. WHO], Nadia Cassini in the shoes of Professor dancing with the whole class [cf. WHO], to follow with other actresses and soubrette who troubled the sleep of most of us, today fifties, in the seventies when we were teenagers, children in our turn of healthy fathers whose sleep was rather upset in their teens from the image of Wanda Osiris, who wore dresses much more monastic than those worn today by rebel American nuns who have had unfortunate as teachers and spiritual directors the Jesuits of the new Company of the Indies. Even for this many years later we became healthy priests, fell into the world of faith and the real, pace of prudish Lefebvre theater that one out fragrance virginity of heretics which in itself and by itself is more impure adultery [cf. WHO].
.
I can not conclude this survey of actressesfrom the voice miagolosa forgetting the beautiful and unhappy Lilli Carati, born Ileana Caravati [1956-2014 – cf. WHO, WHO] I will keep a poignant reminder, while avendoci spoken once, after the disease that tore the life had been diagnosed in 2014, meeting her by chance at a cancer center where I went to visit a friend who was in a terminal state. It would be nice to be able to tell what appeared mild and Christian cross the mind of this woman who was preparing to end his life after a long series of bad choices, but it is those talks and remember that a priest must bring with him to the grave. As the tender conversation I had years ago in Ladispoli, while I was a guest of friends, with that soul as unhappy as beautiful Laura Antonelli [1941-2015], that was an icon of beauty and eroticism, now of poor health and physically destroyed, to which I gave a rosary blessed by the Holy Father, before which he bursts into tears of joy.
.
The poster for the film The duck à l'orange, main protagonists of this film of the seventies two sacred monsters the theater and the Italian cinema: Monica Vitti and Ugo Tognazzi. In 1975 the vision of the film was banned in theaters for children under 14 years because he could see from a distance a small glimpse of the backside of Barbara Buochet, although it was more prudish of certain images painted within our baroque churches. So it worked in that period, except, however, jump to the other extreme a few years later, when in the early evening the Rai offered a butcher's shop worth a lot per kilo [cf. WHO] …
Who is Cristina SiccardiI then try his writings on the bizarre historical and theological level, and his lectures were built on ignorance castles. Instead about how to take it, I would say that could be taken as one that meows in Lefebvrian, while in his rambling lectures enhances the confused and stubborn Bishop Marcel Lefebvre comparing it to the Holy Bishop and Doctor of the Church Athanasius of Alexandria, ie equating facto the Second Vatican Council to the Arian heresy [cf. WHO, WHO].
.
Even more so back with human and pastoral tenderness to my mind the memory of the suffering soul of Lilli Carati, ready to admit their past mistakes, those austere papessalefebvriana as Siccardi would never admit, ie of being wrong for indomitable pride to self-elect to the rank of expert spin doctors in complex and delicate disciplines such as the history of the Church, dogmatic sacramental, canon law and so on, knowing the hurt the Catechism of St. Pius X, and acting accordingly versus the Church instead in church, versus instead of Pietro under Pietro. All because it presumed to be not only a true Catholic, but the Almighty dealership that owns the authentic truth of the Mystery, just like the boutique d'owns the exclusive license for the sale of intimate Via Monte Napoleone in Milan baby doll and of beehive by Christian Dior.
.
I “immoral moralists ” that the result of the Siccardi and related they tear their garments for months about the danger "heretical"Communion for divorced and remarried, to forget their obvious convenience that the first of the deadly sins, It has always been considered the queen of all the deadly sins, it is not lust, but pride. And this does not teach him the "diabolical secret meeting"Vatican II, to whom, as stated by the Siccardi, the heroic Marcel Lefebvre resisted like St. Athanasius of Alexandria opposed the Arian heresy; This teaches the most holy is always very valid Catechism of Saint Pius X, that they know and teach only when it's convenient to them and where it suits them, to support a pseudo-Catholic ideology increasingly grim, certainly not the Catholic unhappy and unorthodox book published recently by Cardinal Walter Kasper to the praise of Luther [see article by John Cavalcoli, WHO]. This Cardinal is undoubtedly a pro-Protestant and an irreducible rahneriano, with an incorrect theological vision of ecclesiology and ecumenism; in his thought they contain several of the major mistakes of modernism and perhaps it is also the direct proponent of some bad advice given to the Supreme Pontiff, but he would never dare to accuse Peter of heresy or apostasy from the Catholic faith, or break the unity of the Church. This is why, if it really was led to a forced choice with no possibility of rejection, as a devoted son of the Church and devoted priest always I will choose Kasper, never Lefebvre and meows of their acidic kittens e cute that wiggle Masses in the ancient rite, among Halberdiers boasting quarters of nobility and countesses aspirants they beatify not worth the ridiculous historical calamity that was to Italy and the Catholic Church lamented their House of Savoy, advocate of anti-ecclesiastical laws passed by the House of Savoy under the legislative model of Napoleon Bonaparte, as well as written under the direct dictation of Freemasons. All this happened at a time when, at the Royal Senate and the Royal Chamber of Deputies of the Kingdom of Italy, Senators and MEPs state that it was Pius IX calling "pig" and the Pope Leo XIII calling "shitty bone». This is so, if the painful novel siccardian alla recently per aspiring Contessine dreamy, we want to go instead to the serious historical analysis, What this requires first of all that educated people, competent and above series. E la vera culture, the true knowledge and the true seriousness, born and proceed from the rejection of the arrogance and the extraordinary virtue of humility that leads to listening, What unfortunately impossible for those who hear only the reasons for yourself and then change the first absolute truths, then closed ideologies and aggressive.

UNHAPPY ABOUT THE LETTER OF THE HOLY FATHER TO THE BISHOPS OF ARGENTINE: A NOTE ON THE ISSUE OF COMMUNION TO DIVORCED REMARRIED
.
If the Pope wants to change the law - and has the power to do so - however, must set aside that unhappy letter, evidently written on impulse to the Argentine bishops. That, remains a private document, which shows the generous soul of the Pope, but lacks juridical prudence, so it is worthless, not for the content, which can be valid - it is in fact up to the Pope to decide -, but for the shape.
The fathers of’Patmos Island they have in mind, as priests and theologians, who Peter is in his role as Vicar of Christ the Good Shepherd, but also the Vicar of Christ, outside the exercise of his infallible ministry, can fall into error, how Peter fell there and how many of his Successors fell after him [cf. WHO], without detracting from the supreme authority of Peter, linked by dogma of faith to the mystery of the Church.
It is known that the Bishops of the Buenos Aires Region they asked the Pope about their "interpretation" oflove joy, from which it would appear that she grants Eucharistic Communion to the divorced and remarried. And the letter with which the Pope approved this "interpretation" is equally well known..
We must observe with regret that this granting of Communion to the divorced and remarried is not an interpretation, my a change of the law contained in love joy, which confirms the provisions of St. John Paul II in Family member company to n. 84, that is to say, the prohibition of communion for the divorced and married, excluding those who choose to live in a state of sexual continence.
.
As I have already had the opportunity to explain publicly on several occasions on the island of Patmos and elsewhere, the Pope has, under the power of the keys, the right at its discretion to change the laws of the Church, although founded on divine right. Now the law of the exclusion of the divorced and remarried from Eucharistic Communion is one of these [see our previous articles from October 2015 in the archive of’Patmos Island, WHO, WHO , WHO].
.
the Episcopal Conference of Argentina
The content of the Pope's letter it is therefore inherently in line with its jurisdictional power, however lacks legal form, whereby, if one doesn't happen healing formal, it is legally invalid, for the reason that I said and I repeat: The Pope's letter is not an interpretation, but a change in the law. While the love joy prohibits Communion with the aforementioned restriction, The letter admits.
.
Until this happens healing, for now the rule of the Family member company, which is tacitly but validly confirmed in love joy. In fact, it is a common rule of legal exegesis that a legislator who returns to the matter dealt with and regulated by a previous legislator, unless explicitly introduced by the new legislator, he confirms the dictates of the law desired by the previous legislator.
.
a group of members of the Episcopal Conference of Argentina
Now this is precisely what the Pope did in love joy for the simple fact of not having explicitly changed the disposition of St. John Paul II. So it has implicitly but validly confirmed. It follows that now as now the norm established by St. John Paul II and confirmed in love joy. However, it should be noted that the love joy contains, with respect to the Familiar Consortium, two novelties, which can act as a premise for a change in the law:
.
– The admission that the divorced and remarried they can be in grace. Now, if one is in grace, It may receive Communion.
– The note 351, in which the Pope mentions "cases" in which the sacraments could be granted to the divorced and remarried.
.
I observe however:
.
collect and …
Ad 1m:an account is the premise from which a law can be derived and an account is the law itself. The premise alone is not true law. The legislator himself must draw the consequences. Only then will there be a true law. It can be said that the Pope did this in his letter. But our case presents the difficulty that these consequences they are contrary to a previous law.
.
The legislator by itself, as I said, has the right to draw the said consequences, but he must clearly state that he has changed the previous law and not that "interpreted" it. Only in this case the new law is valid and binding.
.
Ad 2m:a law must determine the cases in which it is to be applied or not applied, which is not done here, and cannot be stated in the conditional, as given here, ma all’imperative o all’indicative. For this he notes it 351 it has no legal value and does not at all abolish n. 84 from the Familiar Consortium.
.
Conclusion
.
… throw the balls, always has its risks.
If the Pope wants to change the law - and he has the right to do so - he must set aside that unfortunate letter, evidently written on impulse. That, remains a private document, which shows the generous soul of the Pope, but lacks juridical prudence, so it is worthless, not for the content, which can be valid - it is in fact up to the Pope to decide -, but for the shape.
.
I therefore allow myself to suggest to the Holy Father to issue a new document, possibly in the form of Motu proprio, in which, giving up talking about "interpretation", that is a legal monster, say with unequivocal clarity and evangelical frankness that abolishes the law of St. John Paul II and grants Communion to the divorced and remarried in certain cases.
.
It would not be the first time that the Church has changed its laws, but this must be done in due form, to show the face of divine mercy, as well as to reassure traditionalists and penalty takers, and also block the anomistic and treacherous attempts of the modernists and lax. There is a midpoint between the harshness of legalism and anarchist liberalism: legal prudence, which is justice and mercy.

The Order's renewal promoted by the Council has been misunderstood by the current Schillebeeckxiana, which eventually prevailed, and still has a great influence in setting of the Order, which, also marked by the liberation theology of Gustavo Gutierrez, He has abandoned the original motto faith and peace to replace it with "justice and peace".

Element of the initial success of the DominicansIt was the fact that existed at the time of Domenico strong European episcopate communion with the Pope and this was really up to the task. In addition to this, remember that in 1215 the Fourth Lateran Council decreed that the bishops chose the clergy of specialized staff for the preaching of the Gospel.

Today, however, the papacy in Europe, after five centuries of invective Lutheran, It has lost its former prestige. To many it appears the symbolic remnant of a Europe of the past now, Europe today would be guided by purely secular forces, without any reference to the Christian roots - as St. John Paul II asked in vain - because no longer it considered a common value and modern vitality sources.

The Patmos Island Fathers propose to the readers this homily delivered in Pavia on 28 agosto to S. E. Cardinal Carlo Caffarra, Archbishop Emeritus of Bologna, on the feast of St. Augustine, Bishop and Doctor of the Church. In this sermon we discovered product includes all the doctrinal and theological reasons with which recently, I and the Father Ariel S. Levi Gualdo we returned to enter without any false mercy, the deeds of certain "bad teachers" [cf. WHO, WHO] and words of certain dangerous "false prophets" [cf. WHO, WHO]. The words of Cardinal Carlo Caffara we have very heartened and made to feel less alone in advancing the gospel principle: « Let what you say be Yes, Yes ; no, no ; the more you from evil» [cf. Mt 5, 21-37].

the three readings just proclaimed, together they have presented the reality of the Church in its historical condition. The church, as we are told in the first reading, is human unity rebuilt from obedience to the teaching of the Apostles and the "breaking of bread", that is, by the Eucharistic celebration. The unequivocal expression unit rebuilt by faith and the Sacrament, is the disappearance of the categories "My-Your": "They had all things in common".
.
If the first reading we move to the Gospel, the presentation of the Church becomes dramatic. Beside the amiable and attractive figure of the Good Shepherd, They move ravening wolves. They are introduced into the flock of the Lord "to kidnap and disperse"; and in front of the wolves are shepherds-mercenaries who flee, afraid of the danger. But the second reading is even more dramatic. It promises to be for the Church "a day that will not endure sound doctrine […] refusing to listen to the truth to turn to fairy tales ". Dear friends, the contrast could not be more violent: a church built on listening to the Apostles' teaching, a Church traveled by "itching ears" different, by listening to storyteller, "According to their own desires".
.
At this point we must not make the mistake to understand the Word of God in chronological order, as if each of the three readings declare it to different historical periods of the Church: to a holy and immaculate Church of the beginning happens long time a corrupt church and worldly. No, this is not what the Word of God is telling us. What then? And then we begin to go to the school of your Holy Patron, who, in a beautiful text, He answers our question.

Augustine says the biblical text which tells the mysterious struggle between Jacob and the Angel. From it comes the father of the Jewish people blessed by God, but crippled for life. So writes Augustine: "The injured party of Jacob is bad Christians, because there is the same Jacob and blessing and limp ... Now the Church limps. Based firmly on one foot, the other is invalid ' [Speech 5,8; NBA XXIX, pp.94-95]. The Church which speaks the first reading is the same Church which Paul speaks in the second reading. The true Church and the Church - let's call it - of the newspaper is the same reality; is the same Church that, like Jacob, It rests firmly on one foot and the other lame. A great English writer said: "To the great saints and great sinners there is the Catholic Church; for people honest just the Anglican Church " [O. Wilde].
.
"That's why" - writes Augustine -"The Church of Christ believers firm in the faith, but he also wavering faithful, and it can not be stable without the ones in faith, nor without those unstable ' [Speech 76, 3.4; NBA XXX/1, pag.519].

How are we to live in our house which is the Church, in which, as she has just told us Augustine, There are strong Christians in faith and weak Christians? The Word of God heard answers that question, turning distinctly to us pastors and faithful to you. A we pastors : "Dearest ... proclaim the Word, be urgent in season and inappropriate occasion, do warn, reproaches, encourage through all patience and teaching ... do the work of the Gospel preacher ". What awful words are addressed to us Pastors! "You," Augustine says, addressed to you faithful "listen (the) carefully, we (the) We listen with trembling ... As for you listen as sheep of God and see how God has kept him safe. Whatever the behavior of those who are there at the head, that is to say of us, you are always safe for the security you donated the Shepherd of Israel. God does not abandon his sheep " [Speech 46.1 ... 2; NBA XXIX, pag.796.797].
.
Our cities, our nation, our Europe They are facing a deadly crisis. The figure of their agony is the cold demographic winter we are experiencing. The word that God addresses to us pastors forces us to some questions: we are doing the work of proclaiming the Gospel and we are content to exhort people to good moral sentiments, such as for example tolerance, opening, hospitality? We must not be deaf to the real needs, the yearning need that dwells in the hearts of men and women living with anxiety the days dark and sad that we are going through. We do not have to, we pastors, It is deaf to the anguish that dwells in the heart of the fathers and mothers, who think with fear about the future of their children. It is necessary that the pastors of the Church testify, say that inside every moment, in every event live a Presence, a guest who guides everything that happens to the good of those who love God.

Until about our spiritual ruin It will be celebrated the Eucharist, they will be resurrected. The pious moral exhortations let's leave them to others. When the 24 August 410 Alaric I, King of the Visigoths sacked Rome, in the general confusion - was from Brenno time since that has happened - Jerome wrote: "It's taken the city, that the whole world had occupied ' [Letter to Principia CXXVII, 12; RUSE, t. HVAC, pag.154, 16]. And he adds with an immense anguish: "The whole world perished in one city". Jerome could not see the future.
.
Quite different was the reaction of Augustine. He does not suffer less for the news that come from Rome. "There have been transmitted horrible things: massacres, fires, robberies, killings, torture ... all we have moaned, often we cried, We just managed to console » [Discourse on the fall of Rome,6; PL 40, 715-724]. But he brought to completion The City of God, true cornerstone of our civilization. The holy bishop taught his faithful the right way of being in history; and inside the Empire ruins he sowed the seeds of a new civilization.

What he wanted, what Augustine wanted, He was transmitting real hope, and just at a time when the whole empire, and in it his Africa were collapsing. On his death bed he knew that the Vandals had entered the city.
.
Communicating the hope founded on faith which, giving up the project of a retired life of prayer and study, She made him able to really participate in the building of the Church and the city. The hope was that Augustine knew sends unshakable, because he was sure that God had come to live our troubled human story, and from within had saved. It is this God who gives us the right to hope, not just any God, but only the God who has a human face because it was made man.
.
The Lord, therefore, face silenced on our lips of shepherds empty words, and put on our lips the words of truth. The Word of God is addressed also faithful to you. It tells you: "Do not be among those who no longer endure sound doctrine, but having itching to hear something new, not surround yourself with teachers who tell you what you have pleasure to hear you say, refusing to listen to the truth, content, look for fables ". But it is Jesus in the Holy Gospel tells you words of consolation. He tells you: "I am the gate for the sheep ... whoever enters through me, will be safe; come and out and find pasture ".

Here's how he explains Agostino. "We can say that we enter when we gather in our inner selves to think, and we go out when we externalize through the action; and since, as the Apostle says, it is through faith that Christ dwells in our hearts, come to Christ means to think in the light of faith, while going out for Christ means to translate their faith into action before men " [Comm. the Gospel of John 45,15; NBA XXIV, pag.913]. there, dear faithful, What tells you the Good Shepherd: think in the light of faith; translate faith into acts.
.
I conclude. In a paper against the Manichean, Augustine tells us the reasons why it remains in the Church. Here they are: "I stop keeps (in the Church) the consent of peoples and nations; I stop retains that authority initiated by the miracles, nourished by hope, increased by charity, confirmed the antiquity; I stop keeps the succession of Bishops on the same seat of Peter ... until the present Supreme Pontiff; Finally I stop it keeps the same name as the Catholic " [Against that of the Foundation Hands Letter 4.5; NBA XIII/2, pag.307].
.
Dear faithful, listen to your Patron.In these times of great uncertainty still get active in the Church. We have real reasons to do so and beautiful. It is in it that we meet our Savior.

ON THE OCCASION OF THE EARTHQUAKE ENZO BIANCHI dusts A NOTE HERESY
.
An earthquake can be considered a punishment from God? Certainly not as a punishment for the sins committed by the victims, but as a consequence of original sin, as is the suffering; e these consequences no one escapes : even Christ and the Madonna, indeed, although exempt from original sin and its consequences, They were subjected to suffering.
Enzo Bianchi holds a conference in the presence of the Secretary General of the CEI, S. AND. Mons. Nunzio Galantine
In Future the 27 last August [see WHO] Enzo Bianchi has published some of his reflections on the recent earthquake, and thinking to comfort the afflicted and to give an illuminating answer to why God allowed such a calamity, dusts off the well-known heresy, according to which "God does not punish", falsehood contrary to sound reason, to Sacred Scripture, the Magisterium of the Church and the teachings of all the Saints; ma, According to him, God is always and only "compassion" with all and takes all, believers and non-believers, in heaven. Such an assertion sweetish, grave on the lips of those who should be a man of God, removes the unfortunate that 'unparalleled comfort that comes from our faith, He adds bitterness to bitterness, leaving them in anguish, and he pushes to blaspheme a God who would be "good" in sending earthquakes.
.
Enzo Bianchi sent to hold a Lectio in the cathedral of Palermo, by the then Archbishop, Cardinal Paolo Romeo
We try to remedy the "bad cut drug" [1] peddled by Bianchi proposing the true Gospel teaching, and assuming the reader's willingness to listen to the Word of God. The Christian mystery does not rule out the reason, and it is better a bitter medicine that a sweet drink but poisoned. We say first that Bianchi forget that mercy It raises from suffering or prevents ; it also forgets that, in principle, suffering is the penalty of sin. And then the Suffering does not depend on the mercy, but by justice. So that, call "compassion" one who mistreats me, It is a joke. So, When God allows disasters, He not immediately demonstrates his mercy, but his justice. It is absurd and derisive groped to explain the suffering with the sole mercy neglecting justice. This is not to say that when I happen a disgrace, This is always the divine punishment for a sin I have committed. This may be in certain cases; but it is not necessarily always the case. Indeed, in reality, in this life it happens that there are professional criminals who get away without guilt and innocent who are affected by disasters.
.
One of the first call by a newly elected Archbishop of Palermo, S. AND. Mons. Corrado Lorefice: Enzo Bianchi invited to give a Lectio in the cathedral church
As it is clear from the Christian revelation, all the pains of this life, indeed, whether they strike the right, either they hit sinners, They are all in their distant origin protologica, judgment, consequences of original sin and in that sense just penalties, although in fact there are those who are affected little, and some are very impressed. But this disorder is a consequence of original sin. Apart from the suffering caused by the sins or negligence or ignorance of men. The rest, you have to be careful what you mean the Holy Scriptures, when he speaks of "God's punishment". It uses a language metaphoric, as indeed is the case of the word "wrath", taken from human relationships, but which it should best be adapted in the case of God, not to make it repugnant the idea of a "divine punishment".
.
The expression “divine retribution”,indeed, materially socket, He suggests the act of a judge imposing a sentence conventional a wrongdoer. Instead, the penalty of sin is not an evil caused by God in the sinner. God does not hurt anyone. The penalty of sin is nothing more than harm or damage that the sinner himself, with his sin, pulling him. It would be like saying that those who drink too much wine is "punished" with liver cirrhosis.
.
Enzo Bianchi has a Lectio ambo of the cathedral of Padua Church
God "sends" no hellas would a judge who sends the offender in prison, but hell, there are only those fools, whose pride is such that prefer to suffer away from God to be blessed with Him in paradise. If our good is to be united to God, it is logical that our evil is the refusal to join the Well. However, Faith teaches us to see the work of God's mercy even in times of suffering, because for us Christians now calls us the punishment of original sin, and perhaps even the penalty for our sins. But the Christian does not stop there. Serenely accept what happens to him, because you know to take advantage of this suffering to join with love, trust and hope in Christ crucified, who atones for us, It gets us the mercy and forgiveness of the Father for our sins, whereby, by an act of great generosity, but also in its interest, It can come to atone for Christ for the sins of others.
.
God's goodness is not only manifested in the consolations, but also with the correction. This too is mercy. And if we suffer from innocent, let's not get upset, we think of Christ, that, innocent, He suffered and atoned for our salvation and unite our suffering to his to do our part to save the world. Christ with his blood has paid for us the debt of sin - satisfaction for us, says the Council of Trent - , but this does not prevent us to make our contribution. So, in this light of faith, what is the experience of divine punishment he is transformed in the experience of his mercy. For it is by mercy that the Father has given us Jesus, in Whom and through Whom we can atone for our sins. And not only can we be saved from sin (healing grace), but also become "children of God" [The Gv 3,1, grace waved], participate in the life of the Son of the Son.
.
However it must be remembered that,though Christ gives everyone the possibility of salvation through the cross, not everybody de facto accept this offer, whereby not everyone is saved. Which means that God offers to all his saving mercy, only if, repented of their sins, they make penance. Whereby, as noted by the Letter to the Hebrews [EB 10, 26-31], if it already deserves punishment disobedience to Natural Law, here it's called "the Law of Moses", much more serious punishment deserve the rejection of God's mercy because of the rebellion against the law of Christ. Christ is very clear teaching us that some will welcome this mercy and be saved, while others, for their disobedience, the refuse and danneranno[2].
.
Enzo Bianchi has a Lectio in the cathedral of Arezzo
The Pope should remember these things, otherwise his preaching of mercy is likely to be misunderstood and that take advantage mess, that the good guys are baffled, that the judicial system is paralyzed, and that is not done justice to the oppressed, while they are hindered the reform and improvement of customs and are favored moral laxity and corruption. Moreover, given that the terrorists ISIS, according to the vision Rahner, They are "anonymous Christians", object of divine mercy, we can accept their proposal to replace the Koran to the Gospel, the more so, according to the theology of Rahner, Gospel and the Koran are placed on the floor "categorical", where a concept or the other, while all possess the '' transcendental experience of God ", that is the thing that counts and that guarantees to all the salvation.
.
Enzo Bianchi has a Lectio at the Archdiocesan Seminary of Siena, one of the first open after the Council of Trent and after five centuries of training activity closed for lack of seminarians …
Remain deaf to the warnings of the Lordfor a false idea of mercy,remove from the Bible verses that speak of doom, as unfortunately many do, with the belief that everyone is saved, them under the illusion of being able to regulate his conduct at will, to dissolve all moral restraints and to sin freely, with impunity conviction and that in any case there is no one in Hell. But as these ideas ignore the warning of the Lord, this their vain confidence, as already he warned the Council of Trent for Lutherans, It is useless, whereby, if they do not repent in time, actually end up in hell. The love of virtue is not enough to make virtuous, if you do not think about the consequences of the practice of vice.
.
The moment of misfortune reminds Christians the consequences of original sin and the possibility of redemption that is given by Christ, whereby, if he had any fault to be served, It can take the opportunity to settle accounts with the Lord. And if he was innocent he can take the occasion to offer his cross for the salvation of sinners.
.
Enzo Bianchi in the company of another speaker of ambiguous thoughts (see the Island of Patmos archives), Cardinal Carlo Maria Martini
We must certainly do goodfor the love of the good and to the heavenly reward which is the beatific vision of God. The exercise of virtue is certainly already in itself a source of joy; but virtue is not, as they believed the Stoics and Kant, order or its own reward; the exercise of virtue is not the content of happiness, but only the half of achieving, who is in achieving the ultimate goal and highest good, which consists in union with God.
.
The happiness of man is not immanent to man, ie does not consist in an act of man, however sublime and perfect, but in the fact that man, by choice, It joins forever and intimately to an external asset, personal, transcendent and infinite, who is God. But precisely this act will be perfect as it is the act by which man connects fully and eternally with God in charity.
.
Enzo Bianchi, remember that he never received holy orders, he never professed religious vows, It has never been either a cleric or a religious, which it is subject only to the obedience of himself, if you have “masked” abbot by the Supreme Pontiff, no one in the hall told him: "Where you intend to go, dress like that?»
The act for fear of punishment it is wise and logically connected to acting disinterested, pure love of perfection and of God. In fact you can not separate the love for the sake of fleeing or hatred of evil. The thought that if I do such a thing, God is punishing me, or I'll damage, She pushes me to do good.
.
Trust in God and in his mercyIt gives impetus to our action, It makes us "innocent as doves", burning with charity, tenacious in convictions, brave in business, while thinking that some are damned and that I could damn myself, present in all the Saints, It is a salutary thought, pushing us to the good, It makes us "wise as serpents" [cf. Mt 16,18], modest in opinions, conscious of our weakness, acting brigade, cautious and circumspect in danger, warned of the pitfalls, lowly, ready to correct us, penitents, strong in temptations and trials, circumspect and wary in the treacherous situations, making us avoid precipitation, the ingenuity, the dabbenaggine, the excessive optimism, the presumption, too much security, boasting and arrogance.
.
However, the love of the good that is to hate evil. Because of this, the good action main reason is the love of God and not the fear of punishment. But on the other hand, It must also avoid the false security that everyone is saved. Fear is only a subsidiary reason, and yet necessary, precisely to avoid the false security. Fear that is not afraid, but love and respect.
An earthquake can be considered a punishment from God? Certainly not as a punishment for the sins committed by the victims, but as a consequence of original sin, as is the suffering; e these consequences no one escapes: even Christ and the Madonna, indeed, although exempt from original sin and its consequences , They were subjected to suffering.
But we have biblical examples of castigate city for the sins of their inhabitants. But here we are dealing with primitive conceptions of punishment, for which good and evil were involved in one disaster. It specifies the Scripture at one point that everyone is punished for his sins [Gives 31, 29ss] and not to those of other.
.
one of the little innocent victims rescued after the seismic shock
Such a serious event such as an earthquake, when he puts to the test our solidarity and compassion for the needy and stimulates the search for remedies or defenses from many misfortunes, It can and should be considered as a cross which God sends us for our purification and for the conversion of sinners. You can therefore see in it a sign of his mercy, as we take occasion from it to unite us to Jesus crucified for the salvation of the world.
Many phenomena of a perfect nature created by God but imperfect man-made and therefore stepmother, bring us misfortunes, who are among the painful consequences of original sin, though the Creator wanted to put in them the rules and laws, to which they obey unerringly. But we will enjoy in the future resurrection of a mother nature, which he will have rediscovered harmony with man and the original meaning,ordained by God, of its existence.
